When do babies start sleeping for longer stretches? My LO is 6 weeks and wakes up every 2 to 3 hours to eat. Last night she actually woke up every hour...it was brutal
My daughter was breast fed and she was purvey 2-3 hrs and I never slept until she was 6 mnths old! It was crazy try maybe putting a little bit of cereal like a teaspoon of it in her bottle of breast formula. It may help her sleep a little better
wow that's crazy..it's really hard in the beginning, you just started not to long ago..having support from others helps alot..my son now is 5 months and 2 weeks..he was colic (it was horrible) screaming and not sleeping much etc now he sleeps 9hrs at night and small naps (2-3 hours) all day
@ethansmommy21, I am breastfeeding but I do have some milk pumped in the fridge. It takes me even longer though when I try and get her to take a bottle. It's like a 20 minute scream fest before she will even start eating from the bottle each case time whereas from the breast at least she starts right away
@amaperalta03, I don't even mind if se doesn't sleep through the night for many months to come... I just wish she would go for longer than 2 hour stretches. It's starting to wear me down! But yup I guess that's motherhood and for the most part I am just so happy!
give her formula, maybe she's not getting enough of your milk..... and trust mommy's bliss gripewater she should sleep all night
Welcome to motherhood where moms don't ever sleep lol . Every baby is different my daughter didn't sleep thru the night till she was 4-5 months I know people's whose children started sleeping thru that night at like 8 months and some at one month every single baby is different
My son is 11 weeks old and is still eating every 2 hours most of the time, sometimes 3 hours, sometimes every hour. And still does that at night as well. BUT it only takes him like 10 minutes to eat now, where back at 6 weeks it was still taking him at least half an hour. So that part is better!
